The Digital Geography blog and the Bull’s Rambles blog both have news about this new release. From the Digital Geography summary : "Earth Browser 3 is Flash /Adobe Air based, and in a number of respects will be a genuine alternative to Google Earth, indeed possibly a better classroom tool for studying certain topics, especially weather and tectonics. Here’s a quick preview of how the application is looking at the moment."
